The group ate and drank.
An hour and a half later, only scraps and leftovers remained on the table.
Tang Shengtang slowly stood up. "You two, rest here. I ate a bit too much today. I have some personal matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving now. No need to see me off."
After speaking, he glanced at his assistant.
The two quickly disappeared from the restaurant.
Tang Shengtang walked out unsteadily, one hand covering his stomach.
Once inside the car, his demeanor instantly returned to normal.
"Boss, why did you have to follow those two? And why did you say all those things?"
In the car, the assistant settled into the driver's seat and couldn't help but ask.
However, before he could finish, Tang Shengtang interrupted him unceremoniously.
"Enough."
By the time the car merged onto the nearby elevated highway, they had already put a considerable distance between themselves and the small restaurant.
Tang Shengtang's vigilant gaze gradually relaxed.
"You young people don't understand. This is what you call psychological warfare."
However, the assistant, whose hands were on the steering wheel, seemed unconvinced.
Tang Shengtang let out a cold laugh, seeing the expression on the assistant's face through his glasses.
"What? You don't believe me?"
"No, Boss, I!"
The assistant stammered, unable to form a coherent sentence, which was proof enough.
"I say, you young people are just too impatient, just like that Lu Feng."
Hearing this, the assistant, who was holding the steering wheel, became even more puzzled.
He could accept being called impatient.
But Lu Feng, from beginning to end, in his eyes, seemed to be doing only one thing.
Beating around the bush, trying every way possible, all for one purpose.
To probe Tang Shengtang's true intentions.
If that could be considered impatience, it seemed rather inappropriate.
However, such a thought could not escape the notice of someone as cunning and experienced as Tang Shengtang.
At this moment, in the back seat, the smugness on Tang Shengtang's brow grew even more pronounced.
"You just want to say that kid was trying to get information out of me, don't you? Actually, I knew that long ago."
He wasn't lying about this.
"That kid had his phone in his hand from the start. I figured he was planning to record me."
This was something the assistant had completely overlooked.
"So, you see, young people like to get things done quickly. But good things come to those who wait. How can anything in this world be resolved so quickly?"
The assistant was rendered speechless.
Indeed, he didn't know what to say either.
After all, Tang Shengtang had seen through everything.
At this moment, Tang Shengtang adjusted his posture. Instead of leaning back in his seat, he lay down completely.
His state of mind was exactly the same as his posture.
Completely relaxed.
After learning about Lu Feng, he had been very agitated and uneasy for a time.
The fact that this kid could rise so rapidly in Southeast City.
It showed that this kid was not like those who were currently popular, with glib tongues but clumsy hands and feet.
This kid had considerable ability.
So much so that before coming to the Lin family, he had spent several days pondering how to deal with Lu Feng.
For several days, it felt as if a swarm of flies had taken residence in his head.
Buzzing incessantly, it was extremely annoying.
But now, all these problems that had been giving him a headache had vanished into thin air.
Why?
Because this kid was simply no match for him.
Although he didn't know how Lu Feng had dealt with Ge Jun before.
But at this moment, in his eyes.
It was likely just that Ge Jun had inadvertently exposed his weakness in front of this kid.
The reason this kid could bring down Lu Feng single-handedly.
Was nothing more than this stroke of luck, and that was all.
Thinking this, Tang Shengtang promptly fell asleep.
Meanwhile, back at the restaurant.
Lin Mei was still very puzzled by Lu Feng's actions.
Especially the conversation he had with Tang Shengtang just now.
Coupled with him making her get up early this morning to go to Lin Dong's place to hear what Lin Dong and Tang Shengtang had discussed.
It seemed that Lu Feng had considerable interest in this person.
Why could this person attract Lu Feng so much?
This was a question that Lin Mei couldn't figure out.
To the point where Lin Mei couldn't help but ask.
Lu Feng glanced at Lin Mei.
He wasn't planning to let her know about this matter for now.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Feng said.
"It's nothing, I just thought it was a coincidence. You see, we went to the villa last time, and now this person has come to our door proactively."
"That's true."
Lin Mei clearly didn't notice any abnormality in Lu Feng's expression.
Seeing this, Lu Feng couldn't help but secretly exhale.
After all, this person was now proactively showing goodwill to the Lin family.
Moreover, judging by his words and actions just now.
His kindness towards the Lin family was evident in every aspect.
The Lin family, after all, was a business family.
And any business family.
Would naturally not refuse or give up a business casually.
If Lu Feng had spoken directly at this moment.
Even if Lin Mei believed him,
Lin Dong would not.
Instead, Lu Feng recalled what Lin Hai had told him.
Although he couldn't be sure.
Whether Lin Hai would seize the opportunity to stir up trouble when he conveyed this news to Lin Dong.
But given this possibility, Lu Feng absolutely could not let this person benefit easily.
Lin Mei, hearing this, no longer dwelled on the matter.
"Alright, let's go!"
Seeing this, Lu Feng got up.
But before he could stand up,
Lin Mei's voice suddenly came, startling him.
However, upon listening carefully, as long as it wasn't about that person, it was fine.
Lin Mei said, "Just now, I called you my boyfriend. You don't have any objections, do you?"
This statement.
For a moment, Lu Feng was at a loss.
In his heart, Lu Feng had long hoped for this.
Although he had cultivated on the mountain, a Taoist priest was not a monk.
Besides, what was wrong with actively pursuing beautiful things?
There was no problem at all.
It was just that over the years, Lu Feng had focused a lot on studying practical knowledge and skills.
He knew very little about this area.
To the point where Lu Feng didn't even know how to express himself at this moment.
Lu Feng looked towards her.
Lin Mei was now looking up at him.
Her cheeks, fair and smooth, had a slight blush of rouge.
"This!"
Seeing Lu Feng's hesitation, Lin Mei's previously gentle expression instantly turned stern.
"Hey, Lu Feng, don't be heartless!"
Over these past few days, following Lu Feng, although as a rich young lady, she had experienced a series of events that rich young ladies almost never experienced alone.
Not only that, but she had also almost lost her life.
Lin Mei had no regrets about any of this as long as she was with Lu Feng.
Lu Feng, what are you afraid of?
